wow. I haven't seen this video from this angle before. The WTC 2 looks relatively undamaged from this view. I enjoyed the link. Thanks.

The concentrations, in terms of ppm required for a eutectic reaction, would not exist to do significant damage in under 2 hours. Whilst the basic raw materials were present, they were not in the appropriate form, nor was their delivery replenished after the main impact.
The 1993 bombing would have released the same, if not more, of these compounds and provided similar temperature ranges.
The theory has been falsified by the 1993 bombing.
C6 Suggestions for Future Research
The severe corrosion and subsequent erosion of Samples 1 and 2 are a very unusual event. No explanation for the source of the Sulphur has been identified. The rate of corrosion is also unknown. It is possible that this is the result of long-term heating in the ground following the collapse of the buildings. It is also possible that the phenomenon started prior to the collapse and accelerated the weaking of the steel structure.

Severe corrosion of carbon steel and low-alloy steel in sulfur-containing atmospheres starts at temperatures as low as 500 deg C. According to the Dechema CORROSION HANDBOOK (1991 Edition), steels scale at 7.5 g/m^2/hour in atmospheres containing as little as 0.09 vol % sulfur (as H2S) at 500 deg C.
Similarly, data reported by G. R. Colby in Materials Performance Vol 13(4), page 20, (1974) show that A106 and A 213 carbon steels scale at a rate of 50 microns per day at 500 deg C in 0.05 vol % SO2. This rate increases to about 1000 microns per day at 900 deg C.
Thus, it is feasible for there to be as little as 33 people involved if each carried 90kg. Gaining access has numerous plausible scenarios and only requires a window of 5 minutes. Given a good hiding spot for the devices, 1 person could move across 4 floors, positioning 60 devices, in 3-4 hours.
A simple mail boy could walk around the building with 3kg packages unchallanged.

"Given a good hiding spot for the devices"
Er, yeah, I'll just hide this in the waste basket.
Oh wait I gues you missed the part where they shut down parts of the towers prior to 9/11.
And and lets not forget about the fact that the Bomb sniffing dogs were removed from the towers a few weeks prior to 9/11 also..

It has been well established that planting 3000 devices within the WTC is feasible. It only requies a small group functioning for 3-4 hours.
That's all that really needs to be demonstrated at this point.

You are truly ignorant beyond compare if you think that that is even remotely possible.
There is no way in hell 50 guys could go running all over the building opening up walls and ceilings, scraping off fireproofing (in some cases asbestos fireproofing), installing and wiring all those “devices” closing up the ceilings, walls, etc, repairing ceilings and walls, repainting, etc, without the full and implicit knowledge and co-operation of everyone involved in the maintenance, management and operation of the buildings from the building managers down to the cleaning ladies.
